It's possible to match a patch based on it's content.

For example, you can use something like

	HASH=$(/home/wd/bin/pwparser.py --hash <$MBOX)
	pwclient apply -h $HASH
	pwclient update -s 'Accepted' -h $HASH

[error checking omitted here]

to apply and update the status of a patch in PW.  So you can of course
find out which patch it was based on the hash, which depends on the
content, not the subject.

But this is way too expensive and time consuming for regular work.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
